在过去十年中，带着孩子的无家可归妇女是增长最快的无家可归人口之一。然而，这一领域的研究很少关注这些无家可归家庭的需求。这篇文章中描述的对带着孩子的无家可归妇女的民族志研究抓住了这一群体的普遍优势。妇女在寻找住房、照顾儿童和保持社会联系以保持家庭团聚方面的优势得到确认。作者认为，民族志为社会工作者寻找实践模式提供了指导。
Homeless women with children have been one of the fastest growing homeless subpopulations during the past decade. However, research in this area has paid scant attention to the needs of these homeless families. The ethnographic study of homeless women with children described in this article captures the prevailing strengths of this population. The women's strengths were identified in seeking housing, caring for children, and remaining connected to social contacts to keep their families together. The authors suggest that ethnography provides guideposts for social workers as they search for practice models.
